huge thanks to @RavSpec . ordered my wheels late monday night, they arrived to me this morning (friday). tires came from discount tire thursday. supposed to mount them up next monday night so pics will follow.

17x9 et35 gun blue 57dr's with 255/40/17 nitto nt05's. i run about a 1-2 finger wheel gap and -2 camber up front and -2.5 rear. should sit almost the same as my current 18x9 setup so i think ill be good. if not it might take another half degree of camber up front but i doubt it







my other setup:
18x9 et30 fifteen52 forged f40 tarmacs with 245/35/18 ventus v12

I may try and compress the front to see if there are any fender clearance issues, but I think it is looking good.

FYI, I am running only -0.7 degrees camber in the front (using crash bolts). Thats all I could get out of one of the sides while the other side would go to a little over a degree.

Here is the best picture I could take of the clearance between the wheel/tire and the springs (Top of tire, looking down)



This is 17x9 +35 with a 245/40 tire (Hankook Evo V12)
Hey Imrac, do you have any pictures of how the 17x9 57DR's look on the RCE yellow springs? That's looking like the exact setup I want.

Hey Dude, Nice setup

I actually have the exact same Tire/Wheel setup on gold, but Havent gotten a chance to put on coils yet.

Just wondering How the fitment and ride is? and if you had to roll your fenders to make it fit?

Thanks Man
